That ending... It was the very moment when "just" tricks turned into magic. Thanks :)
NoIdea ForNick thank YOU
Yes. A story combined with a magic trick will stay with you longer than the trick itself. Beautiful.
Should call that one, "Hannibal's Cat".
Grown ass man sitting at my desk crying because a man on the internet told a simple but beautiful story of love, mystery and magic and made me believe in all 3 of them at the same time. God bless you man, the world needs you and more people like you.
Thank you ... I'm so glad my story reached you.
Right now, at my desk, tears in my eyes. What an unbelievable moment he created. I wish that making that emotional connection was more common in this field: what Hannibal does here elevates the art form and leaves adults walking away from a magic show feeling like a kid again.
same here right now... It seems to me that the power of wisely chosen words are the real magic.
Right there with those feels, this story was beautiful
I thought I was the only one
I've seen some of the best magicians but so many of them seem emotionless. The interaction with the crowd here really brings a new level to the magic tricks.
For me the connection with the audience is what it's all about.
Love how hes still here liking comments, even from a four year old video. A true entertainer, I'm happy we have good people like him in this sad world
I'm such a lucky man to be able to be here, showing you the art that I love. I'm grateful for all the comments.
@@HannibalSpeaks The funny thing is, it seems to me that your art is love. I've seen quite a few videos now and i loved every bit of them, you are amazing :)!
"Why stop there?"
Sad world. But not without you. Hope. What have you done, lately?
Watching this in 2020 it restored my faith in humanity.
Must not have taken much to lose it in the first place, then.
"Y'ALL AIN'T GONNA BELIEVE THIS"
What happens two generations after "Y'all Watch This"
Being a fan of stage "magic" I've seen lots of tricks. Cards, coins, cups, etc. Different performers do things differently, some suck and some are grand. But never have I seen a man do something so simple, yet so very beautiful as this performance. Thank you, really.
A true Showman!
I'm sucking at life right now. I'm coming on 35 years of age, recently diagnosed autistic (so THAT'S why I'm weird, lol!), fumbling around through this pandemic like I'm some kind of droid waiting to be rebooted and then this Hannibal guy happens to me and... well, let's just say I desperately want him to come to the UK so I can see his show! He's not just a magician, he's a brilliant entertainer and a good soul! I saw a pandemic video of his where he talks about baking bread and giving food he's made away to strangers who are struggling and I've watched a few more besides. The world needs you, Hannibal... especially at a time like this! Hang tight in there buddy, you're an antidote!!!
Again, what a gift. Thanks man. Really powerful combo of story telling, inspirational and magic, which is in itself almost secondary. This is transcending magic into the realm of art and human connection. Your kids must feel so much spoiled with you as their dad!
my dad is a magician so i kind of am one too. learned his tricks since i was a child. i am 31 now and allways look through yt and other stuff just to see new routines. and still, i know how the most tricks are done, there is one of a thousand who can amaze me just by the way they interact with the crowd and keep your eyes awai from the trick simply by telling a nice story. you sir a one of my favorite! (sorry for bad english. not my first.)
Thank you for the message, I'm glad you like my work.
TH-cam randomly recommended your channel to me and I've just been sitting here binging videos of your acts for two hours now. You're an incredible magician, a wonderful storyteller, and funny as hell, but what I'm taking away from this is that if more people took their gifts and used them to spread love like you do, the world would be a much happier place, so thank you for that, and I hope that the love and joy you've spread to others comes back to you in full.
Being able to make someone feel happy, thats real magic.
Merry Christmas, Mr. Hannibal.
Good catch
@@HannibalSpeaks I swear I just found this video and I'm his number one fan because of the song choice... And all the other epicness
@@MrRafabro David Sylvian and Ruitchie Sakamoto? Loved Japan back in the 80s. Found this act today.
@@michaellavery4899 I think Ryuichi is my favourite composer
@@MrRafabro Sorry for the poor spelling of his name. I only know of his early collaborations with Sylvian but will do some more searching.
You just have everything; the sleight of hand, misdirection, comedy, captivating, genuinely heartwarming. Even throwing in some philosophy. You're pure solid gold.
Amazing trick and even more beautiful story.
3 years later and I sit here with tears in my eyes. That was beautiful.
Really amazing showmanship, and the tricks just sparkled with magic
A truly beautiful item. The origami boot was a really, really nice touch. I hope those kids keep them and never unfold them.
Hsien Hsen Wong me, too
The real magic is your gift to touch the hearts and lives of your audience and I gotta say its amazing.
Sooooo. This is probably my third or fourth video of yours I've seen and i can already tell you have earned yourself another well deserved subscriber. And ill be sure to rope in a few more!
Thank you!
i just found your channel and you uploaded this awesome video 20 minutes ago, goddamn
Welcome!
thank you! i'll make sure to stick around and be amazed at more great magic :)
I'm a simple man. I hear "Heart of Asia" (song at the end), I like. Amazing story as well.
Not just your tricks, your sound,your stories,your jokes,how you talk to your guests all these gets togather it makes magic.Thank you ...
As one wise Wizard once said. “Words are, in my not-so-humble opinion, our most inexhaustible source of magic. Capable of both inflicting injury, and remedying it.”
This man knows what he's doing. Just had a wonderful evening, stumbling across your Magic. Thanks :)
I'm not gonna lie, the performance and craftsmanship to the magic here is beyond anything I've seen
People know the stuff you do are tricks. You Sir, turned the tricks into true magic. Thank you.
In a time, where everybody seems to have to rush and most people have the attention span of 2 minutes max, you know how to truly captivate your audience - both live and on screen. Your synchronization is truly amazing: your voice complements your action. It is a pleasure to know that there are still people like yourself, that know how to entertain and to touch the lives of others by merely doing what they are good at. I salute you, kind sir.
With other magicians it feels like they communicate with their audience just to make their tricks go smoother and look better (and that is fine).
But with this guy, it feels as if his tricks (that are still great) are just a complement to his awesome chemistry with the audience (and I love that)!
That ending man. I've recently found you and watched a couple vids. One of the best showman I've ever seen.
chirs I just wanted to say you are probably my favorite magician, I've seen alot of sleight of hand over the past few years but my God man you are just so personable and loveable
James Foster you're very kind. Thank you, I'm glad I brought you some joy.
For your last tale tale in this video, it made me think, ponder with a lot of wonder, "If a wrapped present is mysteriously beautiful, because you simply don't know what it could be and by opening it you destroy that mystery, what about us in the engineering community? What could be just as beautiful? To us Woodworkers and to those who create games and who create those objects, what would be just as beautiful?" To which I answered, A piece of blank stock that's *just* the right size to make only one thing out of. We could turn it into *anything* in the world. We could make a piece of material that was just as beautiful for our wife, girlfriend or child or we could turn it into another tool or gadget for our self and our sons to use in the future and many generations on wards. Possibly the next most beautiful thing from a present is a blank - To a writer, a piece of paper, to a woodworker a log, to a blacksmith and to engineers a bar or block of metal. The very reason some of us who have the talent at home keep a blank we get from someone else, well, *blank*, is because the answer of "What can I do with this?" is simply too grand for us to want to destroy it. It then becomes a mystery to us as it has to your daughter Rose, we don't know the answer because there are too many answers to give. Have a wonderful day Hannibal and everyone else who reads this comment! And for those night-prowlers who read blocks of text like this, I wish a great night to you too.
o ok
This is enough to make a grown man cry
Simply wonderful!
Only about 30% of magic is the actual trick itself. The other 70% is the showmanship, the masterful presentation of the trick, engaging your audience. This is a perfect example of brilliant, flawless presentation.
That fool us penn and teller show is great, but that is just so far above and beyond. Truly perfect.
It may be 4am but that was the most charming and awe inspiring story. I just wish I could be there in person right now, with someone
Any magician with practice can perform tricks. Mr. Hannibal, I love watching your performances. your humor, wit, and sensitivity shine through every interaction you have with the audience. You are an inspiration to watch. Your level of maturity and wonder, I imagine, has been a long and winding road. Keep on inspiring others in the future.. God Bless you...
Just randomly recommended vid on TH-cam makes me smile with tears in my eyes
Not only are your tricks phenomenal, but the way you command the stage and audience is quite something
Every time I see this, I get chills. Quite possibly my favorite piece of magic ever.
The story telling and combination of the majic trick was out of this world. Amazing.
You truly have a gift! Thank you for sharing it with all of us!
Love how the channels updated more often. Love this powerful video. Amazing
I can't believe how hard this hit me. You're a blessing, man. Thank you.
Wow... now this is something very special. Thank you for sharing this.
Man, my heart sank the second Sakamoto started, I thought I was imagining it at first. Great choice of song to back a wonderful story and performance. Amazing!
Brother, thank you. You sir, are wonderful.
I’ve seen this video numerous times and each time it still is as great as the last. The humour and the heart work so perfectly together to make something incredibly unique. Here’s to you man!
I have hit the motherload! This is so good. Bless this mans soul!
What a beautiful story. Not the story of the cobbler and the elves, but a story made for people to share and remember. ...I legit teared up.
Thank you for sharing that. You're amazing.
Thank you very much, sir. I remember this story from when I was a little child. This made me remember it. It used to be one of my favourite stories, and now it is again.
Just wonderful. Thank you for this.
Fell down the TH-cam recommendations rabbit hole and I'm so glad. I've been binge watching your excellent performances and this one in particular, while astounding and funny like the others, was also absolutely heartwarming. What we felt and took away from seeing this was real magic and I thank you, sir. I look forward to seeing more.
Awesome stuff. I can't believe I just started seeing these videos yesterday. One of the most entertaining performers I've seen.
I got goosebumps listening to those beautiful stories. Amazing.
This was truly beautiful! Thank you so much for that smile... I needed it ☺️🙏
You are the man! Very entertaining and happy. I am so grateful I can see your magic! Keep it up!
Turning a story into not only a performance of wonder but also a moment of inspiration and beauty, it is truly impressive!
You are the master of your craft, Hannibal.
Love how you mix the seemingly impossible tricks and crowd work. Perception of a trick is sometimes more important than the trick itself.
Your amazing work just made my day. A beautiful message, really heart warming. I also watched your newer videos, very unique way of magic, absolutely love it. Greetings from Switzerland
I truly love your magic stories.
This video brought a tear to my eye, thank you for making something so beautiful.
Some of the best patter of any magician, anywhere. Great job
Just discovered this genius yesterday and have been binge watching his videos... he's addicting!
I have watched a lot of magicians in 50 plus years and I have to say your style and your storytelling ability combine to make an impossibility a reality. I find myself not caring about solving the trick, but rather the message that comes from the story. This in my humble opinion is what puts you at the very top of a very crowded field of great, talented magicians. Thank you!
I'm so glad youtube decided to recommend me your videos today. This has been a wonderful journey of bingeing your magic.
The most beautiful closer to a show i have ever witnessed
This is special. I'm only seeing this magical performance over three years after it has been done. The mixture of comedy, beautiful story telling, and great magic... Just awesome! Thank you for your time, patience, and effort... even if it is many years later. May you and your family have many blessings. 😊 🍀 ☮
I know this is an old video but I just found you and you're absolutely astonishing. What I love about you is how you care about the crowd and it's really nice to see a breath of fresh air. Your speeches make me tear up and your jokes make me laugh till I wheeze and your sleight of hand never ceases to amaze me. Please keep on being you.
Beautiful presentation. Love your work.
Ahhh man I give you a hug.. xx you went deep with the story of the elves and the bootmaker.. thank uou
The story the magic and the meaning behind it all was one of the best things I've ever seen in my life
I discovered this channel today, this video has something, a pure magic that makes you stop for a minute. Such an amazing show.
You sir are an inspiration to all. Your positivity, your looks on life, just the way you set a moral for a story it's just all amazing and I love it. Thank you for giving me new looks on life. Keep it up you'll go farther then you'll ever dream!
I just found your channel and I'm pretty sure you're one of the best magicians I've ever seen. Not only are your tricks impressive but you're also extremely entertaining. I could watch your videos for hours!
Awesome artist! Thank you for entertaining
Great magician, and a beautiful Trick.

Amazing dexterity and an incredible showman.
Dear Mr. Hannibal, your magic is truly something out of this world. I've been binge-watching your videos since discovering you earlier today. You are so talented - the way you engage with the audience, the way you perform the trick, and the way you put it all together in such a meaningful, funny, entertaining way. Thank you so very much for your work, I hope I can watch you live one day. Wishing you the best.
That was really beautiful, I loved it.
Thank you for making me smile and cry a bit. Beautiful Performance!
I've always liked that story, and the use of it in your trick is so wholesome. Stay beautiful
I get completely drawn in by this man's speech and performance. Awesome trick, awesome story, and an awesome man!
that was amazing, love your shows
best crowd interaction of any magician i’ve ever seen beautiful work ❤️
this story has warmed my heart like no other. thank you Hannibal (and youtube recommendations) for this gift in this trying time that 20 20 has become!
Why am I crying at the end of a magic routine I've watched before? I love the sincerity in everything you do.
I've seen David Copperfield twice and the way Hannibal engages with the audience while performing truly amazing illusions is the best I've ever seen. Keep up the good work sir!
Wow, just lovely. That Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence was a beautiful pick for the end of the trick, wow!
This video is making my mood going up, thank you !
I'm simply lost for words. Eight of the most magical minutes of my life.
I am addicted to your videos. Not just the tricks but more importantly your story telling and the way you connect with your audience.
You sir, bring magic to our beautiful state and beyond. Your ability to make us believe in magic is more than just coins and cards and an old bowler hat, it's deeper. I have never been moved to tears by an act until I saw yours in this clip. You make Us NC hillbillies proud!
You, sir, are wondrous. I've somehow stumbled upon your shows here, and I love everything I've seen you do. Flawless execution, great charisma and these little side notes and stories are golden. Wherever you are and whatever you're doing, I hope you are feeling as well as you've made me feel.
I’ve only just discovered you, and you’re the best magician in my heart. Best of luck and I hope you achieve greatness you’ve never foreseen.
That was excellent - I hope the magic of possibility conveyed here will stick with me...
..and to everyone else that watches. Feels good. Thank you for that. All the very best to you for providing it for us.
This was one of the purest things I've ever seen, love it!
You're amazing Hannibal, love your magic but even more, your stories. Subscribed:)
